TheTA61keyboard

General

The TA61 keyboard has a keypad with maximum 60 usable keys. Except

for the numeric keys (0 to 9), the C key and the 0.00 key, the key layout is

flexible, i.e. any two contiguous keys can be combined to form a double

key and any four keys can be combined to form a quadruple key, either

horizontally or vertically.

The TA61 keyboard is equipped with a key switch with 6 switch positions

and is available with or without a swipecard reader.

A power-up reset and an automatic self-test are performed each

time the POS terminal is switched on. Following these self-tests, the

keyboard is ready for operation. The keyboard receives its power

from the POS system.

TA61 keyboard without swipecard reader

Keypad

In the TA61 keypad, two keys can be combined to form a double key and

four keys to form a quadruple key, either horizontally or vertically. Only

one key code is generated by each double or quadruple key. Different key

codes can be set for the multiple keys by rotating the key caps. These

caps have a guide cylinder that is shifted when the cap is rotated, resulting

in different key codes.

Key caps can be changed on the spot using the key cap remover included

in the scope of supply. When using the key caps for multiple keys, note

the position of the pin on the underside, making sure that the desired code

is set.

Key switch

Key sw itch

The TA61 keyboard is equipped with a key switch with 6 switch positions.

Switch position 0 is the basic position; switch positions 1-4 are provided

for customer-specific applications. In positions 0 and 1, the key can be re-

moved.

The sixth switch position, which is

designated on the lock by T, is

intended for use by Field Enginee-

ring. From switch position 0, the key

provided can be turned to position T

only. This key is not included in the

scope of supply.

The key switch has only one

closure, i.e. there is only one set of

keys for all keylocks that includes the

above-mentioned key variants for the

various switch positions.

Swipecard reader (SCR)

The TA 61 is equipped with a swipecard reader which enables all tracks of

the swipecard reader to be read simultaneously when the card is swiped

through once.

Using the swipecard reader

Pull the magnetic card evenly and quickly, from right to left, through the

slot on the swipecard reader. Make sure that the magnetic stripe is facing

the keys.

Never expose magnetic cards to a magnetic field.

Insert the magnetic card in the special slot provided on the

reader from the right-hand side only; inserting the card at

another location could damage the read heads.

Cleaning Instructions

In order to ensure that the quality of reading results is maintained, clean

the swipecard reader at least once a week. To do this, use the special

cleaning card that can be ordered from Wincor Nixdorf

Never remove a cable from a connector socket by simply pulling on the

cable. Always remove the cable by the connector housing. Please follow

the instructions below when removing cables:

■

Turn off all switches to the mains and electrical equipment.

■

Remove all mains cables from the shockproof sockets installed in the
